EMR Use in the Age of Healthcare Reform

C. Martin Harris, M.D.Chief Information Officer, Cleveland ClinicExecutive Director, eCleveland Clinic

• On February 17, President Barack Obama signed the $787 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.

• The “Act” includes $140 billion for “comprehensive healthcare reform.”

• A net overall investment of $19.2 billion, will be used to promote Health Information Technology adoption and implementation.

• Physicians and hospitals are eligible to receive portions of these funds based on:

– Having an integrated electronic medical record system in place by January 1, 2011.

– Demonstrating EMR “meaningful use”
